Questions, answered
Will it change a DNS record or traffic steering rule on its own?
No. WebRun only reads query volume and uptime data and reports it. Changing a DNS record or a traffic steering rule always stays a manual step in NS1.
What counts as an unusual pattern?
A clear jump or drop in query volume, or any dip in uptime, compared to that zone's normal week. It's flagged for a look, not acted on automatically.
Does the scorecard cover every managed zone?
Yes. It reviews every zone under the account each week, not just your primary domain.
